fsuitw Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 I've been lurking for about a week, but I thought it would be appropriate at this time to make my first post and give a short introduction of myself. My name is Jason Lewis, and I live in Tempe, Arizona. I attend ASU and I am a discus/shot/hammer thrower for the track team. My only grip goal as of now is to close the coc #3, and I've got a coc 2.5 coming to help me attain that feat. I'm pretty enthusiastic about grip being a shot putter since I have had some serious hand injuries in the past, and I want nothing more than to get stronger hands and throw further. What else? My teammate, Ryan Whiting, regularly closes the 3 and is starting a campaign against the 4, but I would venture to say I am closer to the 3 than he is to the 4. I really enjoy this board, and I'm just glad something like it of this caliber exists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the board Jason, Hope you and Ryan can make it down to Tucson some time for one of our Group grip sessions. I threw Discus and Hammer myself for UofA. Let me know if you guys are ever gonna be in town for a meet and we can hook up. Also We are having a Grip comp down here on Feb 9th. - Aaron Edited December 5, 2007 by acorn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrated618 Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Yo Jason. My name is also Jason and I live in Tempe as well. Send me a PM and we could maybe set up a time to grip train and I could teach you a few things if you want. I am pretty new to grip training as well (4 months) but I think we could def help each other, so let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fsuitw Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 I am definitely interested in coming down to grip with you guys, and hopefully I can make some good gains between now and then. I recently got my coc 2.5 in the mail, so with some quality reps I will be that much closer to the coc 3 and hopefully somewhat competitive. What events are being contested? It's nice to live near some like minded individuals, at least when it comes to squeezing the shit out of something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
